Do we have a Constitution anymore, or is it just optional? Because if itโ€™s the second thing it opens up a lot of options about what to do with these guys

Claire, when you get into congress can you slip a single line of text into the next budget bill that would ensure that Section 9 housing gets funded at 100% of formula eligibility?

Yeah, when I read that rentals are basically taxed on 45% of assessed value while single family homes are taxed on 6% I thought it was some kind of sick joke.

Issue in NY is the tax rates are higher on rentals than condos, townhomes, and houses

He's cutting $300m+ from the NYPD though.

He's playing hardball with the council and if you look to see where the money IS going, it's going to expanding Pre-K and homeless services.

This is why Dems need to pick a populist. It's the only way to get these low info voters to stick with Dems.

Pam Bondi loves dogs. Always had them, one after another. She got involved with dog shelters and dog rescue, and once pulled off to the side of a busy road and got out of her car to chase down a stray. Another dog she helped was a Saint Bernard named Master Tank. She adopted him from a shelter after he was lost during Hurricane Katrina in 2005, not long after her own Saint Bernard had died. The story has been told but bears repeating. Master Tank belonged to Steve and Dorreen Couture and their grandson, who was 4, recovering from the murder-suicide of his parents and losing his dog during the storm. Bondi said the dog was a โ€œwalking skeletonโ€ and โ€œdying from heartwormsโ€ when she adopted him. The Coutures eventually tracked down Master Tank, but instead of giving him back, Bondi hired a lawyer, who accused the Coutures of abusing the dog, which Bondi had renamed Noah. โ€œShe lied,โ€ Dorreen told a Palm Beach Post columnist years later. โ€œMy little grandson begged her to take the dog home, and she refused. She thought she would just wear us down. That we were unstable people and would just quit.โ€ The case was settled out of court, with Bondi securing visitation rights, but she never did visit. She got another dog.

I don't want to be too snarky because news like this helps get more people into the fold, but I mean "no shit, Sherlock" is my initial reaction. The people who were concern-trolling about turning edge neighborhoods into parking lots were simply Concern Trolling.

I really do think that Greenpoint and Queens needs a new subway line. Something like this.

Why I keep harping on spending $10B on new PABT when you could do this and shift many of those bus riders (who are also not going to Midtown West as their final destination anyway) over to a way more efficient mode of transit.

I am a big supporter of eliminating streets for cars and turning them into BRT/street cars. To run this well they would need to be fare free. Currently up to 20% of bus travel time on some routes is wasted by fare collection related dwell times.

To the customer, the price would remain the same, but he hotels would take a hit.

Hotels for much of the year would lower their prices in response as they are artificially inflated due to the hotel ban.

The prices you see in NYC are determined by what people are willing to pay to fill their rooms. Adding a 6% to most rooms would reduce demand somewhat, forcing prices lower

30.01.2026 17:11 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

If this results in a reduction of hotel prices as they absorb the cost, whatever missing amount should be taken out of the parking metering plan (probably not that much).

They should do subway expansion by charging for parking in the city. Free buses increases transit utilization and is a subsidy to transit users.

My ideal would be creating a tiered hotel tax like this which would cover it.
